I legitimately think that agentic LLMs are the future of personal computers, the new operating system. Using Claude Code to interact with your own software over MCP, and see it autonomously solve problems with it and using it, is transcendent. The rest of the computer feels so antiquated, handmade GUIs feel cumbersome. Our computers will use our computers soon.
I feel like I'm having an out of body experience wherein my whole community is obsessing over Liquid Glass and I'm saying this is the best software interface I have ever used or could even imagine.
GraphQL via MCP is a slept-on giant. I have never felt like it lived up to its promise for frontend technologies, but letting an agent introspect the schema and dynamically generate scoped queries at runtime is the perfect fit. It amounts to emergent behavior. I used apollo-mcp-server to expose my company’s schema over MCP, then paired that with documents for domain knowledge, as well as schema pattern knowledge, and Claude Code can autonomously use our entire application without a frontend.
I think we are barreling toward a future where an agent is the frontend for most software products. The companies that will be able to exist in that world are ones that own customer data, have proprietary data themselves, or provide access to gatekept services (e.g. brokerages). There is no moat for solving problems at runtime. Bespoke UI, if necessary, will be generated just-in-time. These big beautiful screens will mostly be used for video consumption.
@kyle But the video will be AI generated right?
@mattiem without a doubt
@kyle Whew got worried for a second
